Natural Resources, M.S.

Prepare to make an impact.

The problems facing our natural world are growing increasingly complex. In this program, you will gain the in-depth knowledge and research experiences to contribute to the solutions.

Our graduate students work alongside internationally recognized faculty across eight programs on leading natural resources research. For example, you could explore landscapes after wildland fire; invasive plant and animal species; new and better building materials; alternative wood-based energy sources; better GPS and GIS tools; wild fish runs; wildlife habitats; domestic livestock and grasslands; and much more.

This program encompasses a wide range of natural resource disciplines and issues, ranging from forest resources and conservation sciences; to fire science and wildlife and fisheries resources; to rangeland management and forest products.
